With a naked, drunken Oghren riding a gorilla into battle against the Darkspawn, as he jumps over to a Mabari drawn chariot.
Fix'd
.Because a naked and drunken Oghren is a must-see, even if it blinds eyes and scars people for life.

I think strongly we will probably see Cullen. He seems to be pissed at the way things are being done and might want to help change that. Maybe Sebastian depending on where we end up. I would love to see Jowan in there. So there's a Templar, a chantry person and a mage. Dwarf, we might see Varic again. Wich i don't mind.
Now you need elves in your party. Hmm, don't know. Maybe Fenreil.

Wait, so Cullen is pissed at the way the circle is handled in Kirkwall so he is going to up and leave to travel with the protagonist? If anything, he is going to be given a high position in Kirkwall for his efforts throughout DA2.

If I had to pick 5, I'd pick Cullen, Leliana, Bethany (with Sebastian romance as an NPC and not party member), the Mage who ran to Tevinter, and the boy from Lothering who was hiding in the closet, finally old enough to become the warrior he wanted to be

Who do I think might possibly, maybe, in theory be a companion in Dragon Age 3? Cullen. There seems to be some sort of consensus about Cullen, so I suppose I'm just hopping on the rumor wagon as I say that. I consider myself particularly bad at trying to puzzle these things out.
Now, who do I want?
Nathaniel. Friggin'. Howe.
I wanted Anders so badly for DA2 that I thought my husband and my roommates were going to beat me with sticks just to get me to stop talking about it. Maybe I'll get lucky and something similar will happen for DA3. Because, really, being beaten with sticks? Massively underrated.

Seems to me it would be nice to have Tallis back would give us a interesting direction of the Qunari getting involved in the Mage/Templar war due to the actions of the champion killing the Arishok kind of like a 3 party in the war. Would also give them a reason to for even adding Tallis into the storyline in the first place since she isn't part of the main story. Cullen seems like a fan choice but I just don't see him being part of the party due to being part of one of the Warring Factions involved. Personally I would like to see someone from Tevinter probably Fenyriel ( Not counting Fenris since he is more anti-Tevinter to me ) and every party needs a Dwarf would really love to have Oghren bk even though it wouldn't fit since that spot seems to fit Varric more. Now for a warrior character I would think Lia would be a nice choice since we 1. Never had a warrior elf in the party not counting the Warden 2. Would give us a link to DA2's Aveline and the City Elves prespective on the Mage/Templar War
Basically this is what I would like to see

That would be cool. But even cooler would be having Wade as a companion.
Seriously.

The Dog I think will stay a summon though, since a number of people felt that having the dog in a companion slot was a bad idea when Origins was out...
But how about an Ash Warrior though? Their specialization would be the summoned Mabari then, so upgrading the abilities of the Khaddis or something and making them an archer with the dog would be a great change of pace.

I would be ok seeing Cassandra or Cullen but personally I want mostly new characters. Remember Bioware has said the mage/templar war may not be the main focus of DA3
I had not heard that and that kinda makes me wonder why DA2 even exsists then. A mage v templar war makes things very interesting and really the only reason I could see having Cassandra and Cullen in DA3. That war could open up a Qunari invasion which could bring Tallis back into the story. This war could also open the door for Flemeth and Morrigan to make a return, maybe not as companions but least part of the story.
Even though I do really like a lot of the characters from both games I would be ok if none of them returned. The last thing I want to have happen again is to use a save where I killed someone like Fenris only to have him return to life in the next game.

What I have understood from Bioware so far is that DA3 will initially be about the Templars vs Apostates civil war (spanning from the Free Marches to at least Ferelden, Orlais and Tevinter), but after that is settled (another Landsmeet moment?) a bigger force will threaten all.
Reasonable guesses are:
A) the Qunari finally decide to get serious with their invasion (an inversion of DA2's Act 2 and Act 3, in this case),
something nasty happening with the Darkspawn (Corypheus and Morrigan's son being suspect #1 and #2, with maybe the Architect or his servants joining in).
C) Flemeth, who is mysterious enough to form a category of her own.
D) All of the above.
I'd like to see a game where you choose from the start which side of the war to support. This way, part of the (huge) cast will initially be unavailable to you (some sellout character whose class is "mage"... probably somebody from the other Circles... would necessary have to side with the Templars, for balancing reasons, just like some warriors and rogues will side with the Apostates). Some of the characters would be only available if you fight for the Templars, and some only if you fight for the Apostates. Other characters would be neutral, and be available to recruit either way. Others again would be mutually exclusive, two by two (Virmire survivor style).
At the end, all would reunite to face the bigger threat.
Siding with the Templars:
Among the different origins of the Hero of Ferelden him/herself,
it's already known that only 1 out of 6/7 survived, depending on who
Duncan focused his efforts on.
Hence, similarly, three Orlesian Warden-Commanders, one for each race, could be revealed dead if the Hero of Ferelden didn't die and no Orlesian Commander was ever sent to Vigil's Keep.
The new protagonist should be totally customizable:
Female / male;
Rogue / warrior / mage;
Human / Elf / Dwarf / Kossith.
Kossith (probably as Tal-Vashoth) should only be Warriors and Mages (just like Dwarves can only be Warriors and Rogues). Heck, they could even go full circle and make a new, tiny and fragile intelligent race whose members can only be Mages or Rogues.
Note 1: some of these characters might belong in two or more groups (examples: an Amell Hero of Ferelden might be supporting Apostates and fighting Darkspawn; Bethany/Carver might take part in the civil war or be Grey Wardens and focus on the Darkspawn, instead), or might have chosen different sides already, depending on the outcome of DA2, but I just wanted to point out the roles where they fit more, thematically, and how they could fit in the plot.
Note 2: Isabela in particular is now a ship captain again. It would be amazing if she was a non-missable companion and her ship was your base of operations, which also allowed you to reach Tevinter, Rivain, Par Vollen, etc... Also, the three pirates found in Mark of the Assassin, if freed, should be part of Isabela's crew (NPCs).
Note 3: I'm assuming (again, reasonable educated guess) that not all of the Chantry will automatically side with the Templars, hence Leliana and Cassandra showing among "Others".
Note 4: Any character that might be have been killed (or made Tranquil, or otherwise incapacitated) so far should still make it in the game as an optional companion. Just give him/her a single, maybe smaller, personal quest, whereas the "main", unkillable-so-far companions can get more, or a single bigger one.
Note 5: Bisexual companions are ok, but I feel there should be at least more straight romanceable companions than bisex (you know, out of realism). And at least one or two gay companion of each gender (i.e.: not available at all to characters of the opposite sex).
Note 6: I'd like to see romance happen even between two companions, instead of always being centered on the protagonist. Aerie / Haer'Dalis started it... Bethany / Sebastian and Isabela / Fenris kept the flow going... now it's time to see some "complete" romance, instead of just hints. It could either happen behind the protagonist's back, or with the protagonist giving aid and precious counseling. A love triangle that involves the protagonist, but is not centered on him/her, would be cool as well.
Note 7: Mabari warhounds and Brontos should be class features for Rangers, instead of full characters. It would be cool if Rangers of different origins / races would get different pets.
Note 8: As interesting as the "Connor and Morrigan's son as companion" options might be, they would need to grow up to do so. That would imply the third game being set far away in the future. This is unlikely, given the ending of DA2. Also, all Human characters by then would be very old, and I'm sure we can all agree that a future where Isabela (or Alistair, or Leliana) is old and wrinkly is not something anyone would want.
Note 9: Characters like Cullen, Gregoir, Irving, Zathrian, Josmael, Stroud, etc... are bettere suited to be leaders of their own groups and "outside helps" (if they're allies at all) than actual companions, both because of their political roles and because of their lack of actual personality. Alistair might be the king of Ferelden, but I consider him an exception on account of being freakin' Alistair, aka "the most important companion in DA:O" (ex aequo with Morrigan, I guess), surely a Top 5 among the most important characters of the franchise.
Note 10: I didn't insert the cowardly (but amazing) Finn and the equally elusive Sketch, because I see them as two guys who would always choose "Flight" over "Fight". They might make for interesting NPCs, though... maybe they could join forces and open a magic shop for you! Same for Sandal and his dad... yes, there's something strange going on with the boy, but I still prefer to see him as a quirky NPC, rather than a gritty fighter covered in blood. As for Brogan... he's retarded and uninteresting... maybe get him killed by the opposed faction to convince his brother Jerrik to join you?
Note 11: Yes, I do realize Bioware said that the story of the "Hero of Ferelden" is over. However, given as my Amell crossed the Eluvian together with his lover Morrigan, and my Cousland is the freakin' queen of Ferelden together with her lover Alistair... I have serious trouble not laughing at that point of view. Maybe they might add him/her as DLC? A high level character you only get near to the end of the game, with his/her own DLC quest?
Note 12: Yes, I do realize that's 31 characters (32 with the new protagonist). I want them all.
Just make them all available at once only by the end of the game and reduce the amount of personal quests to the essential (giving only a very small personal quest for those characters who might be dead already and thus may potentially not appear at all in the game).
Reasonable guesses are:
A) the Qunari finally decide to get serious with their invasion (an inversion of DA2's Act 2 and Act 3, in this case),
